Christine Ottowitz
Mourning for popular photo artist from Lower Carinthia
The Bleiburg artist Christine Ottowitz passed away on Sunday after a long illness at the age of 64. The city of culture loses a great daughter.
The world of photography was always a passion for Christine Ottowitz. "It brings joy, ideas, creativity, hope and, above all, light," enthused the Bleiburg native in an interview with Krone in October 2023 about her last major exhibition.
Bleiburg as the center of her life
Ottowitz, who was born in Bruck an der Mur, discovered her love of photography at an early age. She completed her training as a photographer in Graz. She finally found the center of her life in Bleiburg. She was employed in a photo laboratory until 2004, but had also been working as an artist for decades.
Now the likeable photo artist has passed away "after a long but heroically endured illness", as her family announced on Sunday.
The funeral service will take place on Wednesday in the Bleiburg parish church. The artist will then be brought to her final resting place at the town cemetery.
